A general description of the command generation process for unmanned planetary missions is presented. Emphasis is given to those mission characteristics which significantly affect the cost of the uplink process including: the level of mission activity; mission strategies; permissible risk; and spacecraft design. Pertinent examples of the command generation procedures used in the Voyager, Mariner, and Viking programs are given in order to illustrate the different stages of the uplink process.
